It's Getting to Be That Time Again!

Dinner from the Bishops' Storehouse

Although we are no longer receiving blessings from the Bishops' Storehouse, I often find recipes that would work good for what's available there. This is one we tried recently that was really good, and the ingredients are available. It is easily halved if you need to, as this makes a LOT! (In fact, the picture below is indeed half of the recipe!)

We served it with a green salad and garlic bread. Very good! Hope you try it and enjoy it!
